What data is collected by the Platform?

The article explains three types of data collected and gives detailed information on each.

The platform collects 3 types of data:

• Project users and devices

• VPN session statistic

• SDK events

The platform does not collect or analyze any Personal Identifiable Information.

• all the identifiers are auto-generated

Project users and devices data

User data includes the following parameters:

Property Name	Type	Description
ID	integer	A unique user ID auto-generated by the platform
Name	string	Unique user key - concatenates a type of user authentication and an auto-generated user ID in the authentication service. Example: firebase_jfqmTeaifwPNuOwIofHHdhY89Po1 where firebase means that the user is authorized with Firebase authentication type and jfqmTeaifwPNuOwIofHHdhY89Po1 is an auto-generated unique user ID in the Firebase service.
Description	string	(optional) Additional user information
Auth method	string	User authentication method (e.g. anonymous, firebase, etc)
Registration date	timestamp	Date and time of user registration on the Platform
Project	string	Project ID for this user (is chosen by the project owner)
Status	boolean	Users status: 0 - active, 1 - blocked
License	number	License ID for the current user (license limits the number of devices and is chosen from the predefined list).
Traffic limit	number	The per-day or per-month traffic limit for the current user (bytes)
Extref	string	(optional) additional description
Country	string	Approximate user country
Auth profile	string	Public profile of the user. It is received from the response of the authentication service.
Activated devices	number	Number of activated devices

Device data includes the following parameters:

Property Name	Type	Description
ID	number	Device ID. The Platform generates a unique Device ID.
Device ID	string	A unique device identifier, auto-generated by SDK. It is different from the real device ID.
Registration date	timestamp	Date and time of the device registration on the Platform
Name	string	Factory name of the device
Type	string	android, ios, etc.
User Name	string	auto-generated user ID of this device
Status	boolean	Device status: 0 - is active, 1 - is blocked

Data is preserved for 12 months, if not deleted by project managers through the platform management console, and has any activity.

VPN session statistic

For each user session, the following data is collected:

Property Name	Type	Description
Session ID	string	A unique auto-generated session identifier (e.g a3f727d261640aa65cc3c89a47080c2b)
Device ID	integer	A unique auto-generated device identifier
Carried ID	string	A unique auto-generated identifier
User ID	string	A unique auto-generated identifier
Start time	timestamp	When has the session started? (e.g 9999-12-31 23:59:59.999999 UTC)
End time	timestamp	When has this session stopped? (e.g 9999-12-31 23:59:59.999999 UTC)
RX	integer	Amount of traffic received (bytes)
TX	integer	Amount of traffic transmitted (bytes)
Server ID	integer	VPN-node ID for the current session on a particular device (is valid until the session is terminated)
Internal IP	string	Internal session IP. It is different from the real device IP.

Data is preserved for 12 months.

SDK events

SDK sends various events to the platform. This data is used for quality connection monitoring and issue investigation.

Data is preserved for 3 months.
